Simpson County Resident Arrested for Possession of Child Porn

June 19, 2014

A Simpson County resident has been arrested and charged with possession of child porn, announced Attorney General Jim Hood today.

Thomas Eubanks, 21, was arrested at his home in Harrisville Wednesday by investigators with the Attorney General’s Cyber Crime Unit. Eubanks was arrested after an investigation into the trafficking of images of child exploitation led to a search warrant being executed at his residence.

Eubanks is being held at the Simpson County jail without bond. If convicted, he faces up to 40 years behind bars. As with all cases, the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
